Dinosaurs don’t come alive but visitors can get certainly get closer to these extinct creatures then they would on an ordinary day at the Museum of the Earth, the exhibit space of the Paleontological Research Institution in Ithaca. From reconstructed skeletons to geology basics, geothermal energy to a Fossil Lab, via the Quaternary Ice Age, young and old will come away with a better understanding of the forces that have shaped our earth since the dawn of life. Be sure to let the really young ones try out the Dino Dig outside, weather permitting, where mysteries of the past just beg to be unearthed.
